RESULTS investigation committee of the European Council said, found evidence of communications technology has the potential to harm humans. There should be protection for children.
The report highlights the health risks from the proliferation of cordless phones and baby monitors system, which is now commonly used in the household.
Researchers concerned about the existence of electromagnetic radiation emitted from wireless devices, can cause cancer and affect brain development.
This is contrary to the conclusions of the World Health Organization (WHO) which states exposure to electromagnetic fields is very little risks to human health.
-Member Council of Europe's 47 countries called on the heads of government to take action, reduce exposure to electromagnetic fields from mobile phones and similar devices, including its use in schools.
Professor Les Barclay is vice chairman of Mobile Telecommunications and Health Research Program explains, actually there are still little evidence about the dangers of mobile phones on children. Levels are still below the safe levels established by the International Commission for Non-Ionization Radiation Protection. ''If mobile phones and wireless networks are prohibited in schools, too much,''Barclay criticism.
The same was also said some groups who do not agree that cell phone or wireless networks dispensed at school. Because today many schools are already using Wi-Fi network. The children were already accustomed to using laptops.
Even Paul Elliott of Imperial College, London who led the study of long-term effects of cellphone use by involving 200 RBU people, there has been no conclusion phones influence on children's health.
But the Council of Europe remained adamant with the ban. The reason they have strong evidence about the effects of electromagnetic radiation of mobile phones can interfere with health.
